Tunica - PGA event next month

pvn · #1 05-20-2007, 11:11 PM

The PGA stop in Memphis (Stanford St. Jude Championship, formerly FedEx St. Jude Classic) is June 7-10 (IIRC). How much impact does this event usually have on Tunica activity levels? I'm probably heading to town either that weekend or the following, just wondering if I should expect any significant difference.

Normally not much, but these years field has more top tier pro's so attendance might be higher than normal.

Doesn't the WSOP start up in LV that week?
Would think that will also have an impact on the games in Tunica.

He only plays $100 slot machines, doesn't he?

BTW, Daly has a restaurant now. I hear the special is a jumbo turkey leg, two shots of wiskey, a supersize milkshake, and a pack of Marlboro reds.

I was a BJ dealer a lil over 10 years ago. Daly would play 5k a hand BJ 2 hands at a time. But yes he would also play $100 slots.

I disagree.
IIRC, they didn't even get the 20/40 going a couple of nights at the Horseshoe.
Midweek seemed more dead than usual.

Gerald at the GS said they are bad slow right now and don't expect to get much busier until after the series. He also said the Mid America tourney was cancelled, which may be very old news.
